Inter Miami head coach Phil Neville has confirmed that the MLS side are pushing to sign Lionel Messi. The World Cup winner's current contract at Paris-Saint Germain expires in June and faces the possibility of leaving the club.
Messi was expected to pen a new one-year extension with the Parisians, but after leading Argentina to World Cup success in Qatar, it's said that he's had a change of heart. The 35-year-old has now won every competition he's participated in after achieving his 'ultimate dream' and could seek a different challenge at the end of the season.
Plenty of clubs have been linked with a move for the forward, with Inter Miami, Barcelona and Chelsea are said to be keen. The Blues were close to signing the Argentine in 2014, but his father and agent Jorge Messi played a key role in a move to the Premier League falling through.
